Charge Curve
Stage One — Rapid Start Charge at 10 amps delivers maximum charging
amperage to “wake up” any serviceable 12 volt battery and allows for quick engine
starting in just 5 minutes (based on a midsize vehicle battery at 50% charge level).
When battery reaches a maximum safe predetermined voltage, the charger will
automatically signal a "beep" and move into Stage 2 of the charging process.
Stage Two — Absorption Charge maintains the maximum possible charge at a
constant, safe, predetermined voltage. During this phase, the charging voltage remains
constant, while the actual charging current is reduced to allow for the maximum proper
internal chemical energy transfer. At the end of Stage 2, the charger will automatically
move into Stage 3 charge mode.

5. Carefully connect the NEGATIVE (BLACK) charger clamp to the free end of the battery cable
connected to the NEGATIVE terminal.
6. Set the charge rate to appropriate setting according to battery size.
7. When disconnecting charger, always do so in reverse sequence of connecting procedure and
7. When disconnecting charger, always do so in reverse sequence of connecting procedure and
break first connection while as far away from battery as practical.
Note:
A marine (boat) battery must be removed and charged on shore. To charge it
on board requires equipment specially designed for marine use. This unit is
NOT designed for such use.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept
any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. This limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more
of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
